I'm not familiar with DANE.  Is it operational?  Does it include changes to TLS 
to accept/compare the server's certificate obtained from DANE?  If so, then 
that part of the proposal can be mooted in favor of DANE.
 
Yes, it would be simpler to offload the certificate sourcing management to DNS. 
 However, I'm proposing changes to be implemented entirely within TLS, that are 
transparent on the client side.  Only the server side would require an 
additional interface to accept/reject client connections.
